DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION LOGISTICS FOR THE UNDERGROUND LABORATORY AT CERN, SWITZERLAND

摘要

In 1996 a KBR (Brown and Root) led international JV was appointed to design and supervise an underground and surface package. The design of 6 km of tunnels, plus enlargements, deep shafts in glacial and sandstone deposits for the conversion of the existing LEP underground laboratory at CERN, Geneva adjacent to the Jura Mountains/ Lake Geneva had to be undertaken in an operational environment and in conjunction with other underground constructions associated with the 3bn US dollars refurbishment.
